AFFIDAVIT OF DONALD J. BROEHL RE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION STATE OF OREGON

ss.

County of Multnomah )

DONALD J. BROEHL, being first duly sworn on oath deposes and says:

1.

I am the Assistant Vice President for Engineering-Construction for Portland General Electric Company (Company). My business address is 121 S.W. Salmon Screet, Portland, Oregon 97204. My responsibilities include the review of responses to requests for information from the NRC Staff.

2.

The NRC Staf f has requested each licensee of an operating nuclear plant to submit a large volume of detailed back-ground information concerning that Company's engineering and management personnel resources.

By considerable effort, the Company has developed this information which in form will essentially consist of personal resume's of all engineering personnel and all important management pe rs onnel. While the information submitted does not include the namcs of the persons whose qualifications are being provided, the Company believes such identification wou]2 be a relatively easy matter since each person's title is being provided.

54 N st

3.

The Company believes that the disclosure of such personnel information would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy for the following reasons:

(a) The information was submitted by the affected employees in confidence and has been held by the Company in confidence.

(b) The information is of the type generally held in confidence by the recipient unless the employee providing the information has given instructions otherwise.

(c) Such information is not available from public sources, and generally could not be properly acquired by others without the employee's coasent.

4.

In addition to the employee's interest 1-nondisclosure, the Company urges that it itself has a legitimate interest in the nondisclosure of such confidential commercial information for the following reasons:

(a) The information being subritted has been held in confidence by the Company.

(b) Such employee background information is not available from public sources and hence would be difficult ror others to compile without the e=ployee's knowledge and consent.

(c) Employee background information is customarily held in confidence by the employer both to protect the employee from harrassment by others who might seek the employee's services and fr7 253 to protect the employer from losing its valuable employees. By its request for this kind of information, the h7C Staff has implicitly recog-nized the importance of the information sought in terms of evaluating an employee's qualifications.

(d) The Company believes that public disclosure of background information of this type about its valuable employees would cause substantial harm to its competitive position.

(c) This information has not been previously trans-mitted or supplied to the h1C and, under the provisions of 10 CFR 2.790, is to be received by the Commission in confidence.
